Third Grade welcomed their first mystery reader this year, Meghan Hayes, Jack’s mom who read us a book called There was an Old Mermaid Who Swallowed a Shark. In this book, the Old Lady turns into an Old Mermaid, travels down into the ocean, and swallows a shark . . . and a squid, and fish, and an eel, and a crab, and a sea star, and a clam . . . Why? Well, it was fun to cram her mouth with a clam!
The characters lead the reader through this hilarious adventure while exchanging some awesome facts about the creatures down under. Mrs. Hayes’ animated reading made quite a splash with the third graders! The third graders really enjoyed the book and also learned a few facts along the way. Thank you for reading to us!
